The band play The Academy, Dublin Thurs.
14th May.
The Academy 2 in association with FMC presents The Once A Month Club.
A new monthly club night starting this May mixing some of Ireland's best
acts with the hottest new emerging talent. The Academy with some help
from our good friends in FMC are proud to announce “The Once a Month
Club” which takes place on the second Thursday every month kicking
off on May 14th with Limericks favourite sons Giveamanakick and Dublin's
most exciting new band revolution For Dogs.
Set up to give up and coming Irish acts a chance to showcase their sounds
and share a stage with already established artists, the night will, more
importantly, benefit two very worthy causes with all profits going to
Special Olympics Ireland and Pieta House - Centre for the Prevention of
Self-Harm or Suicide.
Every month, we will reveal a well known headline act who have agreed
to lend time to give emerging bands from around the country, the opportunity
to play to a readymade audience in a great venue. Tickets can be bought
in advance through Ticketmaster or on the door for only €5.

The Hot Press review for the single:
‘On their new single 'Save Me' Revolution For Dogs use the same
font as you'll find on a packet of Rizla rolling papers. The Dublin quartet's
latest offering may not be completely smokin', but the jaunty, cheeky-chappy
indie pop (akin to The Coral in places), as well as the steady swagger
of B-side 'Home', is packed with enough character to spark interest in
their forthcoming debut album, due in May.’ Lauren Murphy

The new single 'Mission To The Sun' is reviewed in this fortnights issue
of Hot Press.
HOT
PRESS REVIEW OF 'MISSION TO THE SUN' 12/09/08
'Offering bleak, powerful and punchy rock peppered with some quasi-prog
sound effects, Revolution For Dogs immediately stand out from the crowd
and are in some respects reminiscent of Therapy? The more upbeat and swaggering
b-side 'Vampyre Of The Soul' offers a slightly different take on their
distinctive sound, but both tracks leave a very pleasant aftertaste. Keep
an eye on this lot.'

HOT
PRESS REVIEW OF 'Shadow On The City'
With 'Shadow On The City', Revolution
For Dogs have chiselled as fine a slab of no-nonsense rock as I've heard
in a while. They've concocted a thundering feast of guitar riffing, heart-stopping
drums, passionate vocals, raw rawk and sheer excitement.
